I ordered a new laptop battery. My work laptop only lasts about 2 hours these days on battery power.

That sounds about right, especially if under load.

I hope you ordered a genuine one. I ordered a knockoff (expecting genuine, my bad) and it lasts less than the one we were replacing

I don’t mind really, these lengthy meetings are soul-destroying. Will take a nice walk after, it’s a lovely sunny day.

Oh ya. When we were doing the international hazops we had to explain to everyone what loadshedding was and that people will pop on and off as their power goes off and they turn on generators or join on mobile.

Morning everyone. Centurion is a nice place to live but hell the power issues are bad. On top of the stupid load shedding schedule we had no power since yesterday evening, and then a lekker 4.5 hour shift this afternoon followed by another 2 hours tonight. Grand total were looking at less than 4 hours of having power for the past 24 hour period.
At least today I’m giving training away from home.

Yeah, I got a colleague who lives up that way and he was comparing it to that of being on Stage 7. Ridiculous!
